Talk:History of Manila

Primary references?

Why are HK, Singapore and KL being used as primary references to the location of Manila? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.200.18.91 (talk) November 2, 2009

Duplicate content

Considering there's already a tag atop Manila suggesting it be split into multiple articles, it looks like someone already split off the history section into its own separate article. However now a decision needs to be made whether to remove all of Manila#History and just have a {{main}} article link referring readers here. I figured this should be discussed first as it is quite a major edit and I don't usually edit in this subject. -- œ^™ 06:47, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned references in History of Manila

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of History of Manila's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Postma":

• From Laguna Copperplate Inscription: Postma, Antoon (April–June 1992). "The Laguna Copper-Plate Inscription: Text and Commentary". Philippine Studies. 40 (2). Ateneo de Manila University: 182–203. JSTOR 42633308.
• From Southeast Asia: Postma, Antoon (June 27, 2008). "The Laguna Copper-Plate Inscription: Text and Commentary". Philippine Studies. 40 (2). Ateneo de Manila University: 182–203.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 01:13, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
